Landlords, agents and businesses in Marshalswick
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Marshalswick. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Marshalswick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel

- Cast iron

What else we do in Marshalswick
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Common problems we fix in Marshalswick
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A damaged area around the waste

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Marshalswick questions
How long before I can shower?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Marshalswick.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are there extra charges for Marshalswick?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
